Tried this before handling a long day of meetings and surprisingly stayed locked in the whole afternoon. Not jittery like energy drinks, just cleaner focus. Didn’t expect honey to actually do that.

Best by far

The real mad hunny is by far the best you can get.
The taste is extraordinary, a taste bud explosion, a taste you always want more of.
The bamboo pots and spoon is an amazing touch too.
I have more than one spoon at a time and find my mind is more free, it helps me focus and helps you sleep well too.
I’ll always go back for more hunny, it’s out of this world, in more ways than one.

Hi Klant!

We hear you, and we'd love the chance to make this right. Every jar of Real Mad Honey is wild-harvested in remote mountain regions during the rhododendron bloom, then independently lab-tested batch by batch, that testing is exactly how we keep it authentic and transparent, and we're always happy to share the results. The effects can genuinely differ from one person to the next, as metabolism, tolerance, body weight, and timing all play a part in how strong it feels. We'd also like to get to the bottom of this, so please reach out to us at support@realmadhoney.com with your order number and the name on your order, and we'll take care of it straight away.

Warm regards,

Hi Lorraine!

This one made our whole hive buzz! 🐝 Every jar being unique is the wild magic of rhododendron honey at work, and we love that you picked up on it. One fun fact: our honey is harvested in Nepal, but it ships from our fulfillment hub in the Netherlands, that's the secret behind the speedy delivery! A support team that's got your back and honey you actually enjoy? That's the full experience we're chasing. Thanks for the love!

I broke my back falling through a roof…

I broke my back falling through a roof at age 19, that ended my career as a roofer, and I am going to be 56 this month. I have had 8 major back surgeries during those ages, because I have always worked preferred manual labour. I was finally told by my doctor that its not medically and financially viable for me to work and he signed me off work permanently. I have been on multiple strong meds that would knockout a elephant, but over the years I built up such a tolerance that I was always in pain and couldn't sleep. I havve been waiting for a surgical procedure for some else and was told that I had 6 months to get myself off certain pain meds. I have been waiting for this surgery since covid and said I will be off it in 2 weeks. I have been curious about Madd Honey for a while, and also CBD Gummies hoping that they might curb the awful side effects that last a week, especially not being able to sleep, and restless syndrome being only two of them. I had gone and ordered the Nepalese Honey and it arrived quickly, but was a bit nervous about it, til I gave in and tried a spoonful.. I found that it was relaxing and calm, my legs stopped bouncing by themselves and found that I had dosed off. I went to bed and woke up after having the best night's sleep in a long time. I took it at the same time in the afternoon for the rest of the week, still expecting the withdrawals from the meds I stopped taking. All I can say is that Mad Honey should be prescribed for helping people with medical issues as i slept like I haven't slept in years and what I thought was going to be a week of hell was actually me getting free of painkillers.

Hi Darren!

What a story, thank you for trusting us with it. 🍯 After everything you've carried over the years, hearing that you felt calm and finally rested when you were bracing for the hardest part means a great deal to us. We can't speak to any of this in medical terms, so with your medication changes and the procedure coming up, we'd warmly encourage keeping your doctor in the loop as you go, sounds like you're in good hands. You've shown real courage here, and we're grateful you shared it. Wishing you all the best with the surgery, and we're always right here whenever you need us.

Hi Simon!

This is the kind of review that gets the whole hive buzzing! 🐝✨ Coming back time after time and still calling it special every time? That's the ultimate honour for us. And "be brave and try it", we couldn't have put it better ourselves! Thank you for championing the wild Himalayan magic and for being a true part of the fam. Your next jar of adventure is always waiting whenever you are. 🍯

Good stuff but expensive

Tastes great. The effects are not as strong as I was hoping but that might just be my tolerance. I will buy more but it is an expensive buzz. I understand why, and how they get the honey but it's not something I buy regularly!

Hi Jason!

Thank you so much for such a thoughtful review! We're really glad the taste won you over, that raw, wild flavour is something we're proud of. You're spot on that everyone's experience can differ from person to person, so there's no rush; finding what feels right for you is part of it. And we completely understand it being more of a special-occasion treat than an everyday staple, genuine wild-harvested honey from remote Himalayan regions comes in small seasonal batches, so it's never going to be your average supermarket jar. It means a lot that you see the value in how it's sourced. We'll be here whenever you're ready for your next one!

Hi George!

Thank you, reading this genuinely made our day! It's wonderful that even a single teaspoon settled you into such a deep sense of calm so quickly, and that it resonated enough for you to reorder the 150g right away. Gifting a jar so someone else could discover it for themselves is honestly the loveliest kind of recommendation there is. A teaspoon is a perfect place to stay, too, that easy, unwound feeling is exactly what mad honey does best. Really appreciate you helping spread the word!

Hi Paul!

Thank you for the fair and thoughtful review, we're glad it's still "good stuff" in your book! 🐝 Everyone's body has its own conversation with the honey, so the feel lands differently for different people, and we'd always point folks toward our recommended servings rather than more. And honestly, you nailed the pricing yourself, those wild cliffs and tiny seasonal harvests are the real reason behind it.
